by David Mayor and Marc Micozzi

Energy Medicine East and West: A Natural History of Qi provides a
unique, comprehensive overview of Qi or bioenergy for students
and practitioners of energy medicines, Chinese and Oriental Medicine,
and all disciplines of Complementary and Integrative Medicine.
Mayor and Micozzi start with a comparative historical account of the
ancient concepts of Qi and vital energy before covering theories
of Qi, a discussion of the organized therapeutic modalities based upon
Qi and its applications to specific health and medical conditions.
Contributions are included from international experts in the field.

The book moves from anatomical and bioenergetic complementarity
of Western vital energy and Eastern Qi, through convergence of
perspectives and models to demonstrations of how the traditional
therapies
are being melded together in a new, original and creative synthesis.
